"Puppy Love" - Paul Anka, 1960
Five years ago today, in Houston, I held my little buddy Mac while he was put to sleep. Any of you who have had a similar experience with a beloved pet will know how devastating it is...even if you know in your heart that it's the correct thing to do.
John and I still miss him terribly. All of the Westies I've ever met are characters, but Mac was truly a one-of-a-kind companion. We'll have a toast to him tonight with our favorite single-malt.
I'm sure he'd approve!

I'll raise a glass to Mac tonight too!
We see two "Macs" during our regular evening stroll through the neighborhood and fondly remember your Mac each time. Glenfiddich?
So sorry to read this. Losing a dog is indeed hard.
My dog's favorite breed is Westies. She gets really excited when she sees one. So in Wales I bought her a Westie door stop dog. It's about the same size, but she seemed bemused when I gave it to her.
I'm so sorry to hear that:(
That was a very moving post, Janet. Lovely photo too!
JaneT ~ for reasons which you know, I am just now able to get some of my blog reading done, so I just now saw your post about Mac. You know that I understand *EXACTLY* how you feel. We can hold onto our precious memories and the promise of the Rainbow Bridge. Huggies and kitty kisses from Vikki and her Fuzzy 4
Yes, he was a lovely wee Scottish dug.
Any chance it was a Black & White dram you had? Westies are used as a mascot for Black & White (a brand of Scotch whisky) although it's not a malt.
